About the race
The Travesía Las Playitas-Gran Tarajal, an iconic race of the Gran Tarajal Youth Week, has been cancelled for its 2026 edition. The organization, led by the Club Fuertebrazada, has been forced to withdraw due to a lack of support, funding issues, and the inability to guarantee the necessary safety for the event.
Club president Alberto Rivero deeply regretted the situation on Onda Fuerteventura, highlighting that despite the great enthusiasm of the team and volunteers, they did not have sufficient resources to carry out this twelfth edition.
